BBMW, you are confusing things.

Any citizen could pull the gun if he pulled it to shoot the guy, hence the sarcasm about the ability to stop the crime by having a gun.

As for this line:

The reason the perp pulled his gun was that he was confronted by the cops. An armed civilian on the street would have no reason to confront the guy in the first place. Don't take this a blaming the cops.

Your position is unclear. "Don't blame the cops for shooting civilians"? They shot them. As for the "average (Joe) on the street", why would they not confront someone they think might have shot someone, especially of they were packing themselves and felt they could handle the situation?

I kind of know what you are getting at, but your shot is a little off mark and will get people confronting you on stuff I do not think you meant.

I could be wrong, however...
